Exploring 2D Shapes
Join Hemi, Ruben and Georgia at coding club. Use the shape clues to help plan a geometric game. A vertex is a corner where straight sides meet.
Shape tiles
Use the shape names in the questions. Then answer Questions 1–4.
1.Hemi needs a tile with exactly 3 straight sides. Which shape should he choose?
- Circle
- Triangle
- Pentagon
- Rectangle
2.Ruben chooses the square and the rectangle. How many vertices does each shape have?
3.Georgia picks the hexagon. Fill in both missing numbers: a hexagon has straight sides and vertices.
4.Which shape has no straight sides and no vertices?
- Pentagon
- Circle
- Triangle
- Square
5.Match each shape to its number of straight sides.
- Triangle
- Pentagon
- Hexagon
- Rectangle
- 6
- 3
- 4
- 5
Build the game board
The coding club is making a board from shape pieces. Use what you know about sides and corners.
6.A square and a rectangle each have 4 sides and 4 vertices. What is one way they are different?
7.True or false: Every triangle has 3 sides and 3 vertices, even if its sides are different lengths.
TrueFalse
8.Ruben sorts the tiles into two groups: shapes with curved edges and shapes with only straight edges. Which tile goes in the curved-edge group?
9.Draw a quadrilateral (a shape with 4 straight sides) in the box. Mark its 4 vertices. It does not need to be a square or rectangle.
10.The game needs a repeating tile pattern: triangle, circle, triangle, circle. Draw the next four shapes in the pattern.
